Despite the locality of Brighton and Crawley, this is actually only the second time the two sides have met, and both sets of fans will be well up for the occasion.
The last time the two sides met was back in the 1990’s, and Brighton came out 5-0 winners. Whilst a lot of time has passed since then and now, we’d expect the result will be somewhat similar.
Whilst Crawley Town have impressed so far in League One, bagging six points from a possible nine, our experts just think Brighton’s quality will see them through in the game.
The Seagulls have been immense so far this season, most notably grabbing a stoppage time winner against Manchester United, and Fabian Hurzeler has got his side off to a flying start. I could see his side going far in both domestic cups this season.
It’ll certainly be exciting to hopefully see the best of new signings like Rutter and Gruda.
Our experts are backing Brighton to win both halves in this match. Through QuinnBet, you can find odds of 7/10, so a £10 stake could return a respectable £17.
